There's a YA book called "The Wrath of Darth Maul" coming out, which is why this is the title as opposed to the more appropriate "the disturbed hobo sleep of Darth Maul". In the first scene he's lying on a street being investigated by rats. He's also got six patchwork robotic legs, and the idea of seeing a person who's clearly humanoid but you aren't sure how many knees he has just seemed kinda scary to me, in a fun 'why haven't I ever thought of that' sort of way. It's certainly different from any of my perceptions of his rebirth, but that's fine.

Figures that shirtless men Darth Maul would get me back into drawing.

Star Wars (c) Lucasfilm
"Wrath of Darth Maul", by Ryder Windham, is coming out in January.

Do more please as I read the book I am wished it had sketches before each chapter depicting the key even in it

I got it yesterday am an up to chapter twelve and have been resisting the urge to cry I hope I can hold out :)

I feel a fitting theme song for this novel would be X-23's from Marvel vs Capcom 3

You say I have nowhere to go
You say I have to be here
I know that things are always changing
I know now's the time to go

If you say you want me
You want me here to say
If you say you need me
You need me one more day

Don't be sorry, this is my journey
To find my whereabouts
I'm so happy
To take on a burden
To free my destiny

I love this!
And like ToxicVampire6606 I have to think of the scence with all this Dinkos. Even in this picture he sure is older.

The dinko scene would be cool to see illustrated too.

Maybe you want to do it? Drawing little Maul seems a sweet idea. :)

God I love this book! When I first saw this drawing, I thought of the scene where Sidious fills Maul's room with dinkos and they attack him in the dark when he's getting dressed for bed.

xD I don't know Nem, I like "the disturbed hobo sleep of Darth Maul". :P But really, this is very good. Your pose and anatomy looks so much more natural here, and the coloring is just superb in the subtle way you've handled light and color.

Oh, Maul and his robot legs. Why is it always robot legs? I want to see something about his bottom half being refitted with a droid torso.

lol I do too.

Thank you. I remembered what you said about me having trouble with joints and the way the body fit together so I tried to do some research on that.

lol because they're awesome?

I think that would...impair mobility a bit. :P

I think the fruits of your research definitely show here.

Haha robot legs are awesome. And...that's true. :P
